The aspects of game development that I love most are collaborating with my team and building out architecture that's expandable and modular. I focus on communicating between disciplines in order to help coordinate peoples' work and support the designers' vision for the game. Part of this process is creating systems that provide flexibility and adaptability to support iteration and change.
